Still had to clean but not that bad. I've been doing to 4 years and will totally do it one more next year cuz I'm sticking in college an extra year to get a masters leaving me available to do whatever I want with the summer. The downside is when I leave I'll have spent 12 straight weeks at camp and I just want real food so badly

LOL!!! Sorry.... The term 'real food', I can SO relate!!! I remember the days after camp ended - apples and salads - to get that 'concrete' out of my system. Yuck!! :baffled:

I need to rant for a short while.

I've been dating this girl for about a year and a half now and she just accepted a job this summer to be closer to her family (She was about 2-3 hours away previously)...I haven't talked to her for nearly a week (not for lack of trying)...I finally get a hold of her today and it's been a pretty emotional week with her moving out of the place she had and leaving all her friends she made behind...but apparently she's been getting asked a lot of questions about who she's dating (from family and friends), she's been lying to them about what I do and my living situation because I don't have a full time job yet (I work part time) but have been looking for full time. I told her she didn't have to lie about that sort of thing but she says she does because "she doesn't know anyone our age who doesn't have a full time job and it's always been a deal breaker for her and she doesn't feel secure about anything right now" and she mentioned she needed some alone time this week and wasn't sure what was wrong. I know she wants me to find full time employment but this is the first time she mentioned it being a deal breaker...and I've just been freaking out and have been sick to my stomach since...

Rant over

So i dont know how old you are but i really dont think that should matter in a real relationship and not talking to you for a week even with moving is kind of ridiculous. I would never be able to last that long and i would never have someone not having a job as a deal breaker if i like who they are. Hell ive dated girls without jobs. Maybe its a bit different and im probably younger but still. Shouldnt make a difference and she shouldnt feel like she should have to lie about you. Idk thats just my 2 cents. Hope everything gets figured out.

Xandler, try Freelancer.com

It won't be full time work but you may be able to turn it into something that may lead to a full time gig

and if anyone needs a good laugh, youtube channel 'grade a under a' is a funny bastage

I mean... I'm no doctor, but It sounds like you're getting dumped. This is the same girl who takes ridiculous vacations without you, right? That her parents pay for? Sounds like she's got a way she wants to live, and she's giving up on you being the one who will give it to her.

So she moved back by her family and away from you? Honestly, was there even an exit strategy for the situation? I mean, was it supposed to be a short term thing or what? Because it sounds like she took a job far away, gave up everything- even her friends- to make a clean break, and is now encouraging you to put down roots where you are...

She's actually closer to me now than when she was previously, so she didn't really move further away...She pays for her own vacation too...(her last few trips to Mexico were basically free because her grandparents own a timeshare or something) She's told me that she didn't care if her family "approves" of me anyway...this is all coming out of left field...so I'm hoping its just the stress of her having to move.

I'd cut your losses at this point. If she hasn't happy with your current economic status and is too ashamed to tell people who she is involved with, then that is on her. I promise you, there are women out there who want you for you. Part time job and all. Some women may even welcome that because that will give them the opportunity to spend more time with you. But Kat is right, it sounds like you are getting dumped. All the keywords are there. Deal breaker, can't get a hold of her and needs some time alone. Cut the whole halo effect thing you got with her and invest your time in more meaningful things. Such as finding a career or another woman who will make you happy. You're young, get out there and adventure.

Same. I'm so nervous! I got my AA through a community college, and I did really well- graduated with honors. But now I'm starting at the university of MN and I'm terrified I won't be able to succeed. 😓

Congratulations on the AA, what are you going for and what's your major?

I am an Art major going for Digital Animation - but I think everyone here knows that

Kat as long as you put in the effort and such there's no way you won't. If dumb as 20 year olds can get college degrees you should be able to get 3 in the same time

Thanks! My AA was in creative writing, lol. I'm currently going for a BS in communication, writing emphasis.

From your lips (fingers?)... Thanks, though! One of my classes has the syllabus available already and I'm just like "omg, I don't know what these words mean!!"
